FeedCity: davewiner/blogroll

I have an rss.chat UI added to my naive Elixir/Phoenix-built news reader (which started out with the API from feedbin). I only have a couple of unanswered questions:

1. rss.chat feed permalinks are based on the screenname. What happens if a user wants to change her handle?

2. the API indicates that an item can have an enclosure, but I don’t see how to post an item with an enclosure either vis the frontend or via the API.

3. Are there any ideas about how to grow a federation of rss.chat servers? (This question may expose my naivite concerning RSS’s inbound and outbound possibilities.)

Google to use UK and EU user IP addresses for ad personalization

bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/google-to-use-uk-and-eu-user-ip-addresses-for-ad-personalization/

From August 3, 2026, Google will use IP addresses from UK, EEA and Switzerland users for ad measurement and personalization. It lands as the ICO weighs new consent rules, and years after Google itself called using such signals to identify devices "wrong."
